It's the end of July already?!?!?! WHAT?! Why is this year going by so fast?! My daughter is starting kindergarten in less than a month. This is just making me depressed! So let's get back to polish. Polish makes me happy. Polish doesn't leave me and run off to school when it turns five years old.

Day three of Cameo Colours Lacquers Week is bringing you all two new holographic glitter toppers. I'm a huge fan of Cameo's holographic glitter toppers, so when she decided to release two new ones I flipped!! Not literally, but I squealed and wished that I could do a flip.

I can't believe it's already the last day of June!! Where has this year gone?! So crazy! Well, today is another short and sweet post. It's the only undies I used that wasn't in another post. I might have posted about this one before, but things have improved around here since the last time, so you get to see it again!

It's Friday!!! As much as this week seemed to be dragging early on, once Wednesday hit it just flew by! Anyway, onto the good stuff! I had a lull of things to review, so I dug through my stash to find something I've had some fun with but might not have shown you all. I came across this beauty from Nail Pattern Boldness. I received it in a swap and somehow it was put in with regular polishes and I hadn't used it yet. Shocker! I had Ninja vs. Pirate for almost a year and hadn't used it. I could kick myself!!

**WARNING PICTURE HEAVY**

Back in February, a group I'm in did a Secret Cupid Swap. It was so much fun and I got some amazing things! Unfortunately, it took me until now to be able to swatch them. Better late than never. The ever lovely Jayme from Varnished Reputation got my name so these are all the beauties that she picked for me. It just happens that everything she got me happened to be on my want lists. A lot of new to me indies. I have so much to show you...ready?!?!

Green Ocean is finally mine! For the past 2 years, every time I would go hunting for this elusive polish it was always gone. The whole display would be full except for a couple spots where Green Ocean should have been. A few weeks ago, I went to the grocery store and decided to cut through the cosmetics aisle for whatever reason and there it was!! A lone bottle just begging me to take it home. So I did. I'm beyond giddy that I actually have Green Ocean now!!

Another little swatch spam from the past couple weeks to show you all today. Once again, these are just the undies I used for various swatches. I've decided that I'm going to start showing you all basic undies swatches every couple weeks or so...depending on exactly how many toppers I have needed to swatch lately.

I received a request to do a comparison between Cult Nails Wax That wax effect top coat and a regular matte top coat. People are wondering if there really is a difference. 

My current go to matte top coat is NYC Matte Me Crazy. So, I grabbed that and my Wax That bottle and got to work. I decided to test them over Cult Nails - Nevermore and SinfulColors - SinfulShine - Picante. I did two coats of each color on two nails. Then tossed each top coat over one nail of each color.

Here are the results...

This weekend, I decided to do a little shopping. I only got a few items, but I found some stuff I'm really excited about. One of those stops was at Walgreens brought some unexpected excitement. The only new SinfulColors display there was one for their new SinfulShine line. The display didn't catch my eye first, the beautiful, shiny copper caps caught my eye. I didn't have a lot of time to research before I bought (and there wasn't a price on the display), so I grabbed one color that caught my eye. 

I have some more beauties from SinfulColors for you today. Just a simple NOTD though. I was running through Wegmans over the holidays and walked past the pharmacy department and saw this random bowl on an end cap just filled with nail polishes. No display. Just a bowl. Of course I had to start digging! A bowl of nail polish is almost like the $5 movie bin at Walmart. You just HAVE to stop and go through it. And if you try to tell someone that you just walk past them, WHO ARE YOU TRYING TO KID?! ;o) We all do it. Well, it turns out the bowl was full of random SinfulColors Holiday Shimmer polishes. I grabbed a couple and finally decided to use them!

Maggie had a dentist appointment a couple weeks ago. Her first time with the full blown cleaning. I was so nervous because she has been going to the dentist since before she was 1 and she was NOT a happy camper at any of the appointments. Like any good mother, I talked to her about what they were going to do for 2 weeks before the actual visits. But to be safe, I bribed her with a new bottle of polish and a lunch date to a restaurant of her choice. She did such a wonderful job! She lay there and let them do what they needed to do and didn't budge at all. I was one proud mama!

I have another comparison post for you all today. At the beginning of January, I did a comparison post of a Julep polish and a Sally Hansen polish (link here), and someone asked if I would compare the Sally Hansen polish to Zoya - Feifei. When I grabbed my bottle of Feifei I noticed it wouldn't be anywhere near similar the Sally Hansen, but I did notice it looked very similar to one of the holiday polishes. I grabbed it and below are the results!


**Side note - Due to my stupidly editing pictures late at night, in the below pictures where it says "Winter Wonderland" it is only supposed to say "Winter Wonder". Completely a huge mistake on my part. Forgive me!**

When I was working on swatching my December Julep Maven It Girl box, I noticed a couple seemed similar to others I already had. I already did a comparison post on Ivy, but Harper also looked similar to not only one but TWO different polishes.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!! I hope you all are having a beautiful day with your loved ones! 

It's no secret, SinfulColors polishes have a tendency to become addictive! At $1.99 they are a fantastic formula and it's even better when anyone has them on sale for $0.99!! We all tend to go a little over board on them and we never feel bad about it. At least I know I don't. haha This is one of my more recent purchases from them

As you all may have seen in a previous post, I'm so ready for fall!! I love bright colors, but something is drawing me towards the rich darker colors. Do you see where I'm going with this? :o) Yes, I did more dark colors!

Yesterday, I had a baby shower to go to. It was a lot of fun! I hadn't seen my friend in 3 years. Actually, the last time she saw me was when I was pregnant with Maggie. And the funny thing is, she's due just a few days before Maggie's birthday. There's always that off chance her baby will be born on Maggie's birthday. Would be funny... 

Anyway, for her baby shower I wanted to do something simple, but fun. I grabbed 10 of my blue glitter polishes and decided to do an ombre blue glitter mani. Obviously, I opted for blue because she's having a boy. I swiped each polish on a piece of paper so I could figure out what order to put them in. I thought I got it right, but after all was said and done, I had a couple that were a little off. It was ok though because it wasn't all that bad. 

This is a little picture heavy so I'll get right to it! 

How could I have forgotten these in my nail mail post yesterday?! 

A while back, Jess at Beauty Gnome told me she had been picking up some Sinful Colors polish for me which I was crazy excited about. Before she sent them though, I just HAD to check out her blog sale. Sure enough I saw a couple goodies I had to try.
